If I weere the devil I would want woman to have abortions. I would convince women to sell their fetus for money. I would make having children seem a bad thing. I would encourage young girls to look like prostitutes and young men to look like punks wearing falling to ground pants. I would promote homosexuality, sexual experimentation. I would discourage marriage

If I were the devil … If I were the Prince of Darkness, I’d want to engulf the whole world in darkness. And I’d have a third of it’s real estate, and four-fifths of its population, but I wouldn’t be happy until I had seized the ripest apple on the tree — Thee. So I’d set about however necessary to take over the United States. I’d subvert the churches first — I’d begin with a campaign of whispers. With the wisdom of a serpent, I would whisper to you as I whispered to Eve: ‘Do as you please.’

“To the young, I would whisper that ‘The Bible is a myth.’ I would convince them that man created God instead of the other way around. I would confide that what’s bad is good, and what’s good is ‘square.’ And the old, I would teach to pray, after me, ‘Our Father, which art in Washington…’

“And then I’d get organized. I’d educate authors in how to make lurid literature exciting, so that anything else would appear dull and uninteresting. I’d threaten TV with dirtier movies and vice versa. I’d pedal narcotics to whom I could. I’d sell alcohol to ladies and gentlemen of distinction. I’d tranquilize the rest with pills.

“If I were the devil I’d soon have families that war with themselves, churches at war with themselves, and nations at war with themselves; until each in its turn was consumed. And with promises of higher ratings I’d have mesmerizing media fanning the flames. If I were the devil I would encourage schools to refine young intellects, but neglect to discipline emotions — just let those run wild, until before you knew it, you’d have to have drug sniffing dogs and metal detectors at every schoolhouse door.

“Within a decade I’d have prisons overflowing, I’d have judges promoting pornography — soon I could evict God from the courthouse, then from the schoolhouse, and then from the houses of Congress. And in His own churches I would substitute psychology for religion, and deify science. I would lure priests and pastors into misusing boys and girls, and church money. If I were the devil I’d make the symbols of Easter an egg and the symbol of Christmas a bottle.

“If I were the devil I’d take from those, and who have, and give to those wanted until I had killed the incentive of the ambitious. And what do you bet? I could get whole states to promote gambling as thee way to get rich? I would caution against extremes and hard work, in Patriotism, in moral conduct. I would convince the young that marriage is old-fashioned, that swinging is more fun, that what you see on the TV is the way to be. And thus I could undress you in public, and I could lure you into bed with diseases for which there is no cure. In other words, if I were the devil I’d just keep right on doing on what he’s doing. Paul Harvey, good day.”

In an ironic twist, the bond developed after the FBI investigated Harvey for possible espionage charges back in 1951.

Nearly 1,400 pages of the file obtained by news organizations via a Freedom of Information Act request show that Harvey regularly passed on advanced copies of his scripts to the FBI for review. In turn, the agency often altered and sometimes wrote portions of Harvey's commentary for him. The FBI file contained 66 personal letters that Hoover sent to Harvey, many of them thanking him for his commentaries that praised the agency for fighting crime and communism, USA Today said."

If I were the devil...what a load of crap. Who hasnt been the devil? If you arent now, who amongst who isnt now has never been the devil in their own way? The very idea of it is flawed. What you call "the devil" I call "human beings who haven't yet learned to encapsulate light, who havent learned what Love is or how to use it. I would call it "old man" or "beast man". If I were the devil I would have done all those things just to finally learn what it means to be without your other half, and without blessings of the Creator. If I were the devil, by now I would be learning, and acting correctly, and working on viable ways to clean up my own mess, because if I were the devil at one point, I am not now, and will do my best to help fix the mess i created as the devil. If we all did that, this shit would get better really fast. But everyone is afraid to realize they were the devil, they are the devil, they need to move past it and realize it was the only way to teach the value od Love and of holding Light. If I was the devil, I had a great plan, because I was also the Son of the Sun, Lucifer, who is also the lightbringer. I would wake up at the last minute, and get some shit together, pick up the mess, go home, figure out how to clean up the rest without killing everyone and come back. That's what I would do if I was the devil and had a plan from the beginning to bring this planet back into Light.

"And then, my police state would force everybody back to work. Then, I could separate families, putting children in uniform, women in coal mines, and objectors in slave camps.

Forced labor is in the Bible. The pharaoh made the Israelites work all day long so "they would have no time to cry out to God.". The same thing that's been find to the world so that families will break away from God. Their children grow up not knowing God, their house is made desolate.

I can't say it as nicely as Paul Harvey, but he is right, I have lived long enough to see many of the changes in The US, but not the start that was after Adam and Eve took a bite of that metaphoric Apple!

And wouldn't the devil also create an inferior race which encompasses itself with a lower class distinction by being aggressive yet lazy, always hungry yet fat, self seeking but lost, always loud but difficult to see in the dark, poor as dirt but full of bling, pop bottle sized cocks but never ask for conscent, claim they are equal yet are most racist.

Just want to point out that the "Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion" are older than this Paul Harvey quote but very much in the same vein and even more detailed and accurate.

They say the Protocols are a "forgery" which is a strange thing to say, since they are accurate to a T from over 100 years ago.

The part that is "forged" is the part where they claim to be speaking for world Judaica. If you substitute "Jew" for Illuminiatti or Elite, the Protocols read like a how-to book for the current state of the world.
